Part of the "Chess in C" blog post series. This code iterates through the two-dimensional array board[][] backwards and zeroes out each element.

    /* Iterate backward through board */
    for (i = 7; i >= 0; i--) {
       for (j = 7; j >= 0; j--) {
          /* Zero out the square */
          board[i][j] = 0;
       }
    }
